>Four $25,000 diamond-studded golden crowns.
>A $50,000 gem-studded sword

Fucking Christ. This is only made more remarkable by how unfamiliar SwordQuest and EarthWorld are.

Well see the "crash" happened, Airworld was never even released and the contest was ended half way through.with the winners of the talisman and chalice both being paid off with a $12,500 check. The crown, stone/box and sword all existed though and were shown to the players at the first two playoffs. Jack Tamriel was rumored to have been in possession of the sword but after his death its location like the other two treasures is a complete mystery.

There's hope in my heart that these still exist somewhere out in the world, buried in some attic or basement, waiting to be discovered by some young bewildered distant relative.

But it's more likely the case that they were melted down for quick cash. Either way, what a crazy-ass give-away.

I'd love to hear from one of the kids that went on the Final Fantasy Island Quest, too. I'm curious if it was a similarly compromised experience, or if its as fucking enchanting as it sounds.

i'd rather have an nwc gold cart than this gaudy junk.

Just the base gold and gems from any of the Swordquest prizes would be worth more

Got the consolation prize for that Final Fantasy contest - a hot pink fanny pack with the Final Fantasy logo emblazoned on it. It was filled with chocolate coins wrapped in "gold" foil.
